Renewable forests for your Yacht
From 1953 up to now, the forest volume of U.S. hardwood growing stock has increased from 5.2 billion m3 to 12.0 billion m3, a gain of over 130%.
Example: maple lumber used to produce 250m² of decking for a 55m Yacht
Wood species: American Hard Maple
Log volume required: 27m³
Origin: North American East Coast
Destination: EU Shipyard
How long does it take for 27m³ of Maple to replace itself?
It takes 89 seconds at normal grow rate!
How much CO2 will save my deck with TMT Marine®?
CO₂ analysis with carbon footprint negative
- Biogenic Carbon: CO₂ is only liberated when wood is burned or rotted. Value is for 27m³
- Process waste: We count 0, because it is going to be used for biomass fuel = 60.000Kw/h
- Rest of values: Energy used for all the logging, cutting, drying and transport
